Santa Cruz Sentinel intern Melissa Weaver (that's her in the firefighter togs) wins the race for submitting the first wildfire story of the summer. You can bet more are on the way."It's the second fire in three weeks, which is a bad sign because fire season usually isn't until late summer," Melissa writes. "A staff photographer and I got to tag along with the fire crew today. He has worked for the Sentinel for 20 years, so he knows everyone. It was fun to drive past all the big city reporters from papers like the SF Chronicle and the San Jose Mercury News and get the local angle. I didn't get to put my name on the main story, as it is a composite from all the reporters who went out, but it was still a really cool experience."
